Because he's made himself king...

As I read the story about how Bush signed into law the widening of the legality for wiretapping, all I could think of was...Dolores Umbridge.

Any of you see the latest Harry Potter movie...or at least read the 5th book? Dolores Umbridge works for the Ministry of Magic and is a staunch supporter of the Minister ("if you insult me, you insult the Minister!" type person). She seems all fluffy and nice, with her pink suits and kitten plates, but she is harsh and cruel and if she doesn't like something, she just goes to the minister and she gets to change it. She is sent to Hogwarts as a teacher and ministry representative, but soon ends up taking over the place and putting up decrees about everything from the dress code to how no groups of three or more can assemble. She invites students to join her "inquisitorial squad" and they have free reign to snoop and spy on other students.

Bush just got his the stamp on broadening his inquisitorial squad.

Executive priviledge suddenly applies to every one of his staffers - including 29 year old aides. No one is allowed to testify in the Alberto Gonzales case (a situation where, wouldn't it look better, if you truly had nothing to hide, you LET everybody talk?). And with the wiretapping law, no one wants to look "soft on terror" so it passes.

There are so many reasons and plenty of evidence to impeach both Bush AND Cheney...I just think Nancy Pelosi is afraid to be president and she is next in line...
